When I wore it to school, I got tons of compliments and lots of people asked me to make them a pair. I sold like twenty pairs, and, um, they're just paperclips. Now you can make them and teach other people to make them, or not!

You Will Need (3 things)

  • 1 Small Bowl
  • Cleaning Solvent -MUST HAVE FOR SAFETY REASONS!!!
  • 2 Paperclips -It looks great when you get colored ones

Steps (3 steps, 10 minutes)

  1. 1

    MOST IMPORTANT STEP!!!!!!!!!!

    Take your cleaning solvent and pour it into your small bowl. Put your paperclips in the bowl, making sure it is completely submerged underwater. Leave it for six hours, at least. I recommend you do it for around twelve to twenty-four hours. This is so you don't get an ear infection.

  2. 2

    Once you have sanitized it, start putting it in your ear. When you use colored paperclips, though, a lot of the time it can be much thicker than regular paperclips or earrings. If it is thicker, make sure you don't wear it to much, as it has a tendency to stretch out your ears. Also, if you pull it the right length up your ear(as shown in the picture), you do not really need a earring back. That's it!!

  3. 3

    Oh Wait!!
    I almost forgot. If you connect the paperclips, you can create a long chain look.
